since 2005, we are about 40% of the way things -- to our 2020 reduction goal thanks to president obama establishing new fuel economy standards for the first time in three decades. if you want to know he made a deal with china to save on the coolant you put into the atmosphere. we also need president obama to use the clean air act. he has the authority to set target pollution standards for new and existing power plants. that is the next step and that will help us reach our 2020 goal. host: hanging over a lot of this is the issue of the keystone pipeline. if you can give us the latest on what the obama administration is on the approval. guest: the approval process requires public comments that have not been completed, and the state department is looking at its draft analysis, which many people, including the environmental protection agency was -- believe was flawed. i believe they will have to make a decision sometime in the mid--two-late fall. hopefully the president will conclude this is not in the national interest and set it aside because the pipeline will make it possible to more th

obama's birth certificate, you are not american enough or whatever. host: thank you. guest: i have 33 answers. first, as a general matter, members of both parties are constantly blaming people in the other party. i would submit that president obama more than any other president in my lifetime has blamed the republican party and made more excuses than any president. it seemed as if he cannot give a speech for a while without blaming everything including athlete's foot on george w. bush. that gets tiresome after a while. if your criteria is blaming the other party, i think this caller should probably be more upset with president obama than anybody else. the notion that the deficit has gone down under president obama is ludicrous. that's not true. this is empirical fact. it's not a debate about opinion. he's the first president in american history to submit a budget with a 1 trillion dollar deficit. he's now done this before you are years in a row. the deficit increased. it also little over $10 trillion when he took over. now it's approaching $17 trillion. i don't blame

thank you. usa today opinion headline. the opposing view on this page comes from christopher preble of the cato institute. the truth is that not even the united states can solve serious problems. the deeply dysfunctional syrian status and not some outsiders have the tools to repair. cruise missiles launched from ships and submarines won't persuade the opposition to unite around a common goal. nor are they likely to cause assad supporters to capitulate and go in their lot with the rebels. thise wall street journal morning, they write that the problem is assad. they write here that the worst response would be lobbing a few cruise missiles from a standoff distance. that attack would kill off a few syrians in coding some civilians, but it is hard to see the strategic goal. it would be consequences to the use of chemical weapons. assad would not stop his killing.
